[HTC Inspire 4G] winsettr:
Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on your philosophic views), we live in a capitalist nation. Capitalism equally choices; you have several national and regional mobile phones companies from which to choose from (as several other people have noted). Part of your responsibility as a consumer is to read and be informed of any contract in which you bind yourself. Another part of your responsibility is to use your money as your sword and only support those businesses whose policies you support and/or are willing to agree to. By agreeing to use any carrier's service, you are agreeing to their policies, whether you "sign" a contract it not.

On that note, I do not disagree with the OP, throttling network speed should be openly explained. I refuse to agree that it is wrong, as AT&T would probably have a significantly more reliable network if they had required data throttling on all iPhones (business practices of Apple are an entirely different topic). If the network can only support slower speeds to ensure reliable service, and this is a fact that is readily available, then so be it.

Finally, you technically have every right to petition for anything you want, but that does not mean you have a right to everything you petition. It is theoretically possible that you will get every AT&T customer to sign your petition, showing that policies need to change or risk losing a large customer base. Realistically, this isn't going to happen. There was an article a while back showing that the iPhone and other device users make up the large portion of AT&T's smartphone users, while Android users are (for now) only a small fraction. I don't mean to rain on your parade (seems you've already had quite a deluge), but those are the facts as I see them.

If you feel so strongly about this, change your provider. ATT isn't going to change anything.

Very good points, well thought out response overall. Thanks! :-)

PS - I agree 100%

No, you are not entitled to any specific transfer rate, up or down. Re-read your agreements.

As opposed to getting all upset about something you have no control over - yeah. May as well pick battles that you can win.
[HTC Inspire 4G] bella92108:
Well said. The sense of entitlement of Americans is out of control.
[HTC Inspire 4G] shogunmark:
Look, im closing this thread.. its gotten out of hand and is ridiculous.

Its plain and simple, you did not sign up for a set rate of speed, you just get a data package, they dont list specific speeds you should be getting! It doesnt matter if its 2G, 3G, 4G, etc, you are paying for and getting DATA.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deggs:
I'm a big fan of the voice command features, speech>SMS, email, search, etc...

Constantly pushing the "mic" button on my keypad and talking into the phone mic just isn't user friendly enough while driving.

I can't get anything other than voice dialing to work with a bluetooth headset.

My BT set is a cheapie, I'll gladly buy a new one providing this is the issue.

I don't care about it reading email or txt's back to me, I have to be able to say "txt/email so&so, blah blah blah" and have it do that via BT.

Anyone?

Thanks,
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rptw:
i dont think u can do all the voice commands on BT cuz i just got a pair of sony dr-bt101 and same thing
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vlara:
I agree with rptw I dont think its possible. I connect my phone to my car stereo via bluetooth and cannot use the voice commands it would be awesome if I could thou so hopefully someone has a solution.
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rvbarton:
Voice commands over bluetooth work with Vlingo.

Vlingo is the greatest app (imho) for the streak! I use it for everything!

It's available on the market

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lukew@bellsouth.net:
Vlingo has 1 fatal flaw

After using Vlingo once, if you move out of range of your phone, then Vlingo

will cause your phone to reboot.

See link below of this problem:

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deggs:
Vlingo is great, works fantastic, thanks for the tip.

However I've noticed that my headset doesn't stay active long enough to complete my task. EI: push the BT button, say "txt so&so", wait for Vlingo to respond -headset stops listening-

Push the button again, say content of the message, wait for "thinking" -headset stops listening-

Push the button again, say send...

Is this consistent with any other Vlingo users headsets?

Thanks.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanillakakes:
this is my first post. I tried looking for an answer to this without having to post a thread, but I failed... so i'm wondering if anyone can help.

the problem is just as the title suggests. I didn't realize this using stock 2.1, cognition 3.01 but after flashing to cognition 4.1 I realized my sms/call notifications come through both speaker and earphones when earphone is plugged in.

has it always been this way for the captivate? I could've sworn I didn't realize this while using cognition 3.01. I thought the notification sounds were only coming from the earphone when it's plugged in. I mean it makes sense right? if you're in the library listening to music on the captivate you expect it to ring notification ringtones through the earphone not the speaker.

thinking it was fine on stock 2.1, i went back and flashed back to stock and realized it did the same thing.

so yea my question is

1. is this the normal settings on the captivate/android?

2. is there a fix around this problem? (without having to set the phone to silent/vibrate while listening to music)
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] venomio:
Yeah, I have the same problem with most of the ROMs here. Not sure if it's the same with the stock, but it does seem like a standard setting.

My only suggestion is to leave it on silent if you don't need it going off... It is a bit of a nuisance though!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vanillakakes:
it really is annoying. I could've sworn either 2.1update-1 or cog 3.01 didn't do this. i did find out some people prefer this setting for some reason. sigh.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rastah85:
Ok so I have the same problem. I was looking for a solution and was about to post a thread until I found this one. Like it was previously mentioned, I would like my notifications/ringtone go thru my earphones ONLY if I was to be in a library for example... Any suggestions...?
[Xoom General] foldog22:
Hey All,

Just wondering if you all know if Cisco or Google will figure out the whole VPN / Group Name fiasco? I am not sure who or where the limiting factor sits with (Google or Cisco) but it would be really nice if they would support Cisco VPN when using Group Name.

I am pretty sure that was never solved in the 2.x version of Android. If it has, I would love to know!
[Xoom General] Inphinitizeit:
At least on android 2.X I rooted and used VPN Connections and that allowed to me to connect to my work's Cisco VPN
[Xoom General] bogatyr:
Either VPNConnections doesn't work right with the Xoom or the tun.ko module that someone compiled for the other type of VPN isn't working right with it for IPSEC. I can't seem to connect using my rooted xoom, though I've done it with every phone I've owned with ease.
[Xoom General] foldog22:
You can connect to a Cisco asa using ipsec Vpn with group name on 2.x?
[Xoom General] bogatyr:
Requires root, a tun.ko module compiled for your kernel installed on your phone and VPNConnections.apk. With those three things, it is easily done. My HTC Aria, Droid 2 Global and Droid X all could connect to our work routers which use Cisco IPSEC VPN with a group name/password.
[Xoom General] alee:
The only way to get Cisco VPN working right now with the stock VPN client in Honeycomb is to have your firewall configured to allow inbound VPN using the group policy DefaultRAGroup (which is what it will default to when no group name is present).

It took me a few hours to figure it out but have it working on my ASA5505. Can't take credit though... this thread was instrumental in helping me figure out how to get it to go.

https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2029577

Refer to the post by Laurentiu Zibula.

Downside is that you can only get it working if you have full control of the firewall you're connecting to, and buying your network admin at work a six pack of beer isn't going to convince him to try this.
[Xoom General] bogatyr:
Don't think that will work for non-ASA devices though (i.e. routers).

[HD2 General] Psyrecx:
Ok, I posted this in the Windows 6.5 section, but have yet to get a response. After installing the cab that makes your wifi stay on when unattended, my phone's proximity sensor stopped working properly durring calls. Now instead of shutting my screen off, it just dims it. Which causes me to open a ton of programs or just completely hang up on the person I'm talking to.

Attempt #1 = Failure. Guess it checks for all of the stock apk files. So I'm going to re-enable all of the bloatware and try again.

Update #2 After failing to update...now I no longer have the ability to update. Where is the update downloaded to?

Update #3 - Thankfully I have a backup with the update on it. Have made a little more progress. Now I'm only getting the Status 7 code....which means I need to unroot the phone. So thats the next step. They are not making this easy.

i am currently running

tytungs NexusHD2-Gingerbread V2.3

does anyone know if there is a way of keeping the gps alive when the screen goes off as i use my phone alot for tracking and the problem is at the minute as when the screen time outs so does the GPS

where as ideally i would like to keep the GPS alive once the screen is off

can anyone help?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] AngelDeath:
I'd like to see that too, but i think it might be like the wifi a sleep policy, unfortunately I wouldnt even know where to begin to look, but since it exhibts the same thing as wifi did, I would think thats where the devs would need to look, but it could very well be a Google issue, but I'd love to hear someone who knows more then me.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] gromsy:
I would also REALLY like to know how to keep the GPS on when the screen is off. Otherwise it really is useless for tracking.

WM6.5 used to do it no problem with RunGPS and other programs, but with Android (I'm using MDJ's Cyanogen 7 ROM) RunGPS and the awesome program Locus just can't be used for tracking for any considerable length of time if you have to leave the screen on since that causes massive battery drain and also random screen touches which open and close apps and mess with settings.

Do all of the Android ROMs for the HD2 have this issue?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] mrlard12:
From what I have tried it seems to be all gingerbread based builds, I have gone back to tytungs froyo build where tracking apps actually work
[Defy General] 2Pints:
I received my new sim free Defy towards the end of last week, its on Three UKs £15 per month 1 month contract deal with 2GB of included data+200minutes+500 texts.

So far..

it seems quite easy and simple to use, the waterproof/resistant ability's have also been tested to the full, as already its been dropped in a bath, a canal ( luckily it was at the canal bank ) and had a pint of beer spilt on it.

As for general use, so far i have been unable to use it as a USB modem with my Laptop p.c ( tethering?) I know theres an app that will do that, but why doesnt the option in the mobile networks main menu work?

Next annoyance is the USB connected noise, each time i connected and disconnected it from my P.C the phone made its default notification noise, although ive just fixed it by making an mp3 that consists of 1 second of silence, copying that to the phone and using the 1 second of silence as the default notification ring tone, and then setting a different noise for e-mails and texts.

I also bought some cheap screen protectors to go with it, and erm, er, they were awkward to apply, they didnt fit the screen very well ( they weren't even on square !) they vastly reduced the screen sensitivity, and after the accidental dunking ( especially the beer incident) the phone went berserk, as liquid got between the screen and the protector.

one thing that has been a lifesaver is a little capacitive screen stylus, as i have found getting used to the touch screen keyboard to be not so easy due to its small size.

So at the moment im on the lookout for a decent screen protector ( something that fits the phone/wont cause moisture problems etc), and a new case as the old one smells of canal water.
